Credit view of property firms rises

IMPROVING property sales and rising sentiment in the bond market are boosting the credit profiles of real estate developers, according to a latest research report.

"Capital raising in offshore bond markets have helped some developers to improve their liquidity and debt maturity profiles," Kaven Tsang, a Moody's vice president and senior analyst, said in the "China Property Focus" report yesterday.

So far US$2.32 billion worth of bonds have been issued by property firms since July, exceeding the US$2 billion issued in the first half of the year.

In September, contract sales of new homes rose 19 percent from that of August to 540 billion yuan (US$85.7 billion) as sentiment gradually picked up in the traditional peak season for home sales.
